Hi it looks like it may be a brass gaming token to me.Used for gambling

I got these cheeky little fellows today made in in the 60s of 925 silver by Teghini of Italy

I remember it going up a good £100-150 over night with the britexit vote

Looking at ebay sold listings in auction its about a ok deal. I think that £2600-£2800 seams to be the ebay auction price at the moment

The guy i got it from said something about his grandfather owning a shop in Italy so makes sense

Ive never played golf but i do love silver and this little guys great. The average gold ball weight is 45-46g So just under 100g of silver in it. I thought most of the weight would be in the beak but its in the legs. I would love to find out some more info about him and is there are any more out there like him to collect

I received this little guy today Hes about 142g and about 10-11 cm tall and stamped 925 in a couple of places. Just wondering if anyone has any info on him ?

Thats a video i would like to watch

Looks good to me

Brilliant Uncirculated coins don't have a true frosted finish... https://www.1817.co.uk/buy-or-sell-gold-sovereigns-by-type.html#/ As per the attached video from the RM. Thats correct as when i have had a 2014 proof sovereign next to one you can tell that its not as frosty but ngc must struggle to see the difference as they did the same with the 2017 sotd sovereign calling that a proof at first

They are brilliant uncirculated coins with the frosting on one side only (As the royal mint intended them to be) I have sent more than one of these coins for grading and they always come back as PF coins

They are not error coins. They are the brilliant uncirculated coins miss graded by ngc and pcgs. I have the 2014 double brilliant uncirculated sovereign coin with the frosting on the st gorge side only and i sent it to numistacker for grading and he had to return it back to them 3 or 4 times as they kept putting it down as a pf70 instead of ms70 i have the coa that says its a brilliant uncirculated coin but ngc have it down as a proof. Send a 2014 brilliant uncirculated sovereign to ngc and it will come back as a pf not a ms coin

I was talking to a guy a couple of weeks ago about gold and he showed me a photo of his gold stack and he had a fake 1oz gold ngc graded coin in there that i could tell was fake right away. So i let him know that it was a fake. But he had the coin to long to return it through ebay so i told him to open a case with paypal and i think he got his money back
